Wedding planning is notoriously a stressful time, but what happens when you are planning a wedding where you have two religions to honour?

Ultimately this decision lies with you and your partner, but recognise that honouring a family tradition is often what it comes down to. Keeping your families happy! 

Depending on the religion and the officiant, you could combine faiths into one ceremony by having a minister of each religion perform the marriage rites.

Communication with your guests would be a great way to ensure your interfaith wedding goes off without a hitch. Providing an itinerary, specific dress codes and some do’s and don’ts ahead of the event would be an excellent way to prepare everyone for your wedding.

I personally always like to check the colour scheme ahead of time, to ensure I’m not matching or clashing with the bridesmaids!

To celebrate both families heritage, Chris + Naina took the opportunity to fully enjoy both faiths at separate events. With a traditional Western civil service wedding at South Lodge Horsham, West Sussex. And a Bollywood themed wedding reception the following week at Surrey National in Caterham, Surrey
